Delphi TL2072 Steering Tie Rod End Assembly - Front Left
Delphi TL2072 Front Left Tie Rod End
Delphi TL2072 is a front left steering tie rod end assembly built as a standard replacement for select BMW applications. It features a bent steel design, pre-greased construction, and a black chloroprene rubber dust boot to help maintain steering response and protect the joint from contamination.
Compatible with BMW 230i xDrive, M240i xDrive, 430i Gran Coupe, 430i xDrive, 440i xDrive, 330i xDrive, 328i xDrive, and other listed models, this Delphi tie rod end is engineered for OE-style fit and dimensional consistency. Part number TL2072 is also cross-referenced to MOOG Chassis Products ES800943A for the same application.
Key Features
- Part number: TL2072
- Front left steering tie rod end assembly
- Standard replacement design for select BMW steering systems
- Bent steel construction with painted finish
- Pre-greased and supplied with dust boot
- Adjustable design with locking nut included
- Washer and mounting hardware included
- Male threaded ends with clockwise thread direction
- Black chloroprene rubber dust boot
Detailed Description
Delphi applies OE-focused engineering to its aftermarket steering portfolio, and TL2072 reflects that approach with careful dimensional and material analysis for proper fitment. The assembly is built with a 16.70 mm rod diameter, steel tie rod material, and a 349.50 mm stud-center-to-end length to match the specified front left steering position. Delphi also validates its steering components through extreme temperature exposure and extended salt-spray testing to evaluate durability in demanding conditions.
This part is a direct-fit steering tie rod end assembly for BMW 230i xDrive, BMW M240i xDrive, BMW 430i Gran Coupe, BMW 430i xDrive, BMW 440i xDrive, BMW 330i xDrive, BMW 328i xDrive, BMW 330i, BMW 340i xDrive, BMW 228i xDrive, BMW 328i GT xDrive, BMW 335i GT xDrive, BMW 428i xDrive, BMW 435i xDrive, BMW M235i xDrive, and related listed applications. Use TL2072 when replacing worn front left steering linkage components on these BMW models.
Common Problems This Part Addresses
- Steering play or looseness at the front left wheel
- Uneven tire wear caused by worn steering linkage
- Clunking or knocking from the front suspension and steering area
- Imprecise steering feel or wandering on the road
- Boot damage that can expose the joint to dirt and moisture
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the vehicle’s front left application, thread direction, and overall length before installation. Because this is an adjustable tie rod end assembly, a professional wheel alignment should be performed after replacement. Inspect the mating steering components for wear, and confirm the dust boot seats correctly before returning the vehicle to service.
Quality Assurance
Delphi uses OE-based engineering and testing methods for its steering components, including temperature cycling below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, plus 720 hours of salt-spray exposure. That validation process supports consistent fit and material performance for the TL2072 steering tie rod end assembly.
